Video: “Is Obama forcing Americans to get health insurance?”

This amazing CNN news story by reporter Zain Asher should be required viewing for the GOP House caucus. It’s about efforts to educated uninsured families in New Jersey about Obamacare, and it illustrates how little the Affordable Care Act’s biggest beneficiaries know about the new program. To put it another way, folks aren’t exactly jumping up and down at the prospect of access to health care.

Watch Jose Menendez, as he asks, “I have a question. Who created this affordable health care plan that you’re speaking about?”

Asher tells him Congress passed the measure. Menendez says, “I’m just wondering as a citizen of America, how come I did not hear of this?”

And: “Is Obama forcing Americans to get health insurance? It sounds that way.”

As I write this, I am watching the president give his gazillionth TV appearance bashing GOP intransigence. Clearly it’s not sinking through to voters. Watch this GOP. You may see the wisdom in what’s in Obamacare before they vote again to defund it.
